Frozen Cattle.

Fl. Keoeh, Mont, Feb. l4.-In. round
numbers there were, January /, 100000
hesd of cattle, and $4,000 sheep on the
ranges north and south of the Yellowstone
river within a radius of che hundred miles
of this point. Up to that dste stock had
not suffered much from the severity of the
winter, but during January and half OF
February, just closing, storms have been
of unprecedented frequency, and the tenn
perature averaged the lowest for fifteen
years.
II is not possible to accurately estimate
the losses, but they have been enormous, in
some places amounting to practical ami
lation of whole herds. A Tongue river
stockman, who has just returned from an
examination of his herd, said to a CORES
pendent: "At Ignite where my herd was
located, | saw piteous sight. AS far as
/ could see up snd down the river cattle
were standing knee deep in the snow una
bic to obtain blade of grass for sustain
ance aad gnawing the wood of willows as
last resort In space of fifty yards
square / counted twenty-five
dead beasts and a cowboy told me
there were fully thousand dead between
Ignite and Moon creek, few miles above,
the cattle are almost unable to move, as
their feet and ankles are but raw masses of
bleeding flesh from having been cut at
every step by the crusted snow. They
occasionally go upon the ice in search of
water, and finding an air hole, tumble into
the river. Men cutting ice saw thirty head
of cattle drowned in two hours They
could not be driven away, as they were
mad with thirst"

Don't Like 1t.

Berlin, Feb. 16.-The Ndchriehten SAYS
the threatening character of the stu alton
across the western frontier is becoming
much more acute. In view of the fact
that huts have already been constructed to
shelter 10000 men, and preparations made
TO shelter similar number around Bel
fort. We have beyond doubt to deal with
nothing less than the strengthening of the
French line to enable them at the begin
ming of hostilities TO throw large force
across the frontier and thus transfer oper-
atoms to the German territory.

MYSTERIOUS CRIME.
A Young Mans Midnight Murde
in a Manitoba FlOnring
Mill.

Winnipeg, Man, Feb. 1.-THE city j.
In dreadful state Of excitement over de-
velopments which point to murder most
foul. Chas. A Schofeld, young married
man of thirty-fve, was bookkeeper 70!
Mcmillan Bros, who run large Touring
mill on the banks of the Red river. Scho-
field went back to the mill after supper to
catch up work. At 11:20 Waterman Null
ter looked into the Office and found Scho-
field busy at the books. He returned an
hour Later and found the door leading
from the mill to the Office locked. There
being no light in the Office Multer suppos-
ed SchoDeld had gone home and thought no
more of it. Yesterday morning about IL
o'clock Mrs. Schofela sent down to the mill
10 know why her husband had not return
ed. An employe in the mill tried to get
INTO the Office, but found the door barred.
He crawled in through the wicket and
was Mortified to find the floor despatched
with blood and Scho6eld's pen, cap, over
coat and overshoes on the floor. The
books were lying open on the desk, show
ing an unfinished entry In Schofeld's
hand the safe was open and the cash-box
gone. A stool was broken, and there were
other evidences of foul play, From the
Office door to an air hole in the river
about furlong distant, there were found
spots of blood all along the snow, the
supposition being that the body was push
ed into the water. Steps were
at once taken to cut away
the ice, and at the present writing humid
reds Of people are standing about watching
the operations of those who are cutting ice
and dragging the river. A dirk knife
found on the snow a few feet from the
Office points to the belief that the tragedy
was committed by Italians, whom there
are large number here in destitute cir
cumstances. Interesting developments
are expected. Fled Multer, the Waterman,
was arresteded last night ON suspicion of
being implicated in the murder at Scho-
field. An electric light has been erected on
the river bank, and the work of dragging
the river will be continued all night.

He read the proposal in the light of some
things he knew, and readily nosed out the
''nigger in the wood pile" He had not
been given any tips, but he had learned a
thing or two from experience, and he made
his bid upon the approved basis. The re-

Lent imparts value to fish that it never
has at any other S, ason of the year, but we
never expected to live to see anything so
funny as Fred-Fish nibbling in earnest
ness at United States Senata,ial bait.
Our Trenton correspondent says, owever,
that it is literally true that the little Presi-
dent of the State Senate tried TO persuade
Senator Griggs that the suitable man for
the Republican caucus to fly to is-Mr.
Fish. Surely the advent of Ash Wednes-
day must have made this political polly
wog insanely arrogant. Senator Griggs is
a shrewd and sensible public man, and he
could do nothing bat laugh at him. lie
had to laugh and he did laugh. The broad
humor of the suggestion couldn't but have
appealed to Griggs's sense of the ridiculous
with irresistible force Fish for United
States Senator .Ha ha! ha ! he he
he he ! ha ha Well, well? That's the
fresheet kind CT fish that even the Lenten
demand has brought to the surf-ce. Re
publican stomachs may be tough and os-
trich like, but the Caucus would die of dys-
pepsia in an hour if it tried to swallow
such morsel as that

NEWARK, Feb. 26.-Correspondent Ely,
of the Evening News" of this city, in
duced Ex-Governor Albeit to talk to-day
about the Senatorial Situation. ssI am still
firmly IN the fight" said the Governor to
the newspaper man. "Why should 1 with
draw, and in favor of whom? Were I to
step out would it not disrupt the party? I
am very sorry that this Senatorial fight Is
consuming so much of the time of the Leg
islature. 1t is unfortunate for the State,
but it has plenty of precedents in history.
United States Senators are seldom elected
during the first few weeks of the Joint
Meetings where majorities and pluralities
are close. There are always men who are
anxious to cast complimentary votes for
their friends. I think that the Democratic
press of the State has been too severe upon
the six gentlemen who have bolted our
caucus. They have subjected themselves
to criticism, it is true, but with one excep-
ton it must be remembered that they did
not bolt the caucus until after three Re-
pubicans had bolted theirs, lmaking Sena-
tor Sewells success impossible. Had there
been any danger of the Republicans elect
ing Senator, | am satisfied that these gen.
tlemen would have cast their ballots for the
caucus nominee. That they will do so in
the end know. Next week four of them
will return to my support. Then will
have thirty-nine votes, and do not think
it will be difficult to obtain the other two"
WHO are the four?"
81 do not care to say now" replied Mr.,
Albeit. Doubtless you can find out from
some one else"
One of MIR. Abbett's friends said that the
four whom be referred to were Senators
Chase, Mcbride, and Chattle and Assem-
blyman Kinney.
TRENTON, Feb. 26-Only Senator Fish
and Messrs Scudder and Hutchinson APP
peared at the joint meeting to- day. A bal
lot for United States Senator resulted i ,
one vote for Albeit and one vote for Sew
ell, Mr.. Fish not voting. Adjourned to
Monday.
WASHINGTON, Feb. Ex-senator McPher-
son has received another urgent call from
the D emocratic leaders to come to Trenton
1t is expected that he will leave here to-
night. Hon. William Walter Phelps said
to-day in effect that ex-governor Albeit
had exhausted all his ammunition, and
ather intimated that Ex-Governor Bedle
would eventually be the Democratic nomi-
nee for United States Senator. The Albeit
stock is still high, however. in the Demo-
cratic market here. .,s.s,

The city redemption notices to which we
have been forced for the last nine Sundays
to surrender all of one and the largest part
of two pages of the SUNDAY MORNING NEWS,
have been advertised now for the full time
the law requires, and the paper appears to-
day with its miscellaneous department in
lit afore-time fullness. The paper of to-
day presents about thirty columns of fresh
and interesting reading matter to its pa
irons. We have room again to enable
us to give attention to the social and
other incidents of city life in which our
readers are interested. The opening of
the Lenten- season on Wednesday crowded
whole army of social festivities, public
and private, into Monday and Tuesday last,
and very full reports of them will be found
elsewhere in the paper of to-day. Next
Sunday the pages devoted to these reports
day, will be flied with local matter of more
general interest.

The article on local politics published
in another part of to-days issue shows
that the Democrats have an unusually
good chance to capture the city Boards
this spring. The Police Board, tie now,
will almost surely be Democratic. The
Democrats have two of the three Commits
sioners who hold over to the next Board,
and they will almost certainly beat Meyer
in the Fourth, and elect their man in the
First. The Fire Board is Democratic now,
and the next Board will be made up of
about the same men we guess. We may
possibly lose our majority in tie Board
of Works; but even that can be saved by
judicious nominations. If we can't get
clean majority in the Board of Aldermen,
we are pretty sure the Republicans can't,
and a tie is the next best thing to victory.
The uncertain element in the contest is
the effect Labor nominations may have
upon the canvas; and that is a matter that
will be watched with deepest interest on
every hand.

The effort to divide the township of
Long Branch has been defeated by

ism has grown up between the two sections
Of the town-the midsummer capital on
the sea frcnt and the village proper.
The one is community of mlllionaires
residents; the other a community of
farmers, born on their manors and always
living on them The farmers control the
local machinery of government, and try to
force the millionaire midsummer visitors to
pay all the taxes by making determinations
in the valuation of property. Naturally
enough the millionai-es sought political
divorce from their country cousins, and
Senator Chattle introduced an act author
izing the division of the township. Judge
Magee of the Circuit Court, has inst de-
clared the act to be unconstitutional, be-
cause it meets the constitutional inhibi-
ton against local and special legislation for
towns, cities and counties.

inqniring why the Bayonne police are SO

orders in that city growing out of the
strikes. Within the last fortnight there
have been four disturbances of more or
less magnitude and Importance. In one
of them life was nearly sacrificed
on Tuesday, and three men besides were
badly hurt. So far there have been no ar
rests for these ouirages. Wherever their
sympathies may lie. the Bayonne police
are not expected to wink at disorders, by
whomsoeYer committed. Let US have
little more vigilance on their part in bring
